Happy Style is an everyday mood-enhancing
application, a relaxing and energetic game, as well as something special
related to hacking a program. These three elements are closely connected and
all together form a completely new genre called "Werewolf" (more
about it below).
This project is the first piece in the universe World of Unique Views. I worked hard on this game for about 4 years, trying to create a unique and useful program, immersing myself in Development Hell.
I hope you will like it! Enjoy reading and playing! :)

★ On the one hand, Happy Style is a daily app, ready to please with a warm word, inspire with a wise quote and remind the user of his dreams and achievements.
★ But Happy Style is also a relaxing and energetic game that uses the player’s warm words, his dreams, achievements, wisdoms and even… complete nonsense. This part includes a story campaign, an arcade mode with great replayability and additional Challenge Levels.
★ Another layer is no less important, perhaps it is the most interesting… the path to it is through _HACKING_ Happy Style in search of the Eternity Administrator’s Room lost in time.
The essence of the new genre "Werewolf" is the total transformation of a seemingly ordinary game into something completely unexpected with a different meaning and gameplay relative to the original concept.
It's
not about a simple unexpected plot twist at the end or the appearance of
unpredictable mechanics (like RTS in the Brutal Legend or two different types
of Sonic Unleashed gameplay), but about a large-scale transformation, both in
terms of story and gameplay.
The
game and the program remain complete without the “Werewolf”, you can easily
skip it and enjoy what is initially seen, but still it is even more interesting
to discover something new and surprising.
However, “Werewolf” is just as important part of the
game as the base visible in front of it. It combines with other layers and at
the same time seems completely alien.
In Happy Style, the secret part goes side by side with
hacking and sheds light on the… further details will certainly become a very
healthy spoiler, as, incidentally, even the description of the genre has
already become.
Without the “Werewolf”, Happy Style still remains a
full-fledged cheerful game, as well as a daily app to improve your mood!
This is a multi-layer program, where you can always, hopefully, find something of your own, close to your heart!
The gameplay (its part that is not related to hacking) is based on relaxing finger movements on the touch screen.
One half of the levels is designed to relieve stress and improve mood. Just move your finger across the screen and get warm words, inspirational quotes and reminders of your dreams and achievements! The goal is to relax and enjoy the process.
The action is full of visual effects, the finger pointer takes the form of one of the many available types of fruits and everything is accompanied by beautiful music. Several messages, slightly transparent, appear on the screen in its entirety, and the main message, located at the top, is filled letter by letter in time with the user's movements. Each word seems to be spoken by one of the characters of Happy Style - cute animals that defend the Yummy Federation.
The idea of such levels came from a small observation: in nervous moments, people often try to get distracted by something, to find aimless work for their hands. For example, simply turn over the pages on the phone screen. I thought it would be interesting to do something with this, to add a bit of joy to the process.
Other levels - Severe Arcade Challenges. The path to victory in them is through dexterity and ingenuity in the fight against the mysterious FoodMemes who decided to seize the Yummy Federation.
Here, an important place is given to the correct use of the combo system and abilities, as well as the reaction rate.

Making your way through the campaign, you will discover an amazing story - completely alien and at the same time Your Story.
The gameplay and Happy Style atmosphere are inspired by Geometry Wars, 3D Ninja Gaiden games, Forza Horizon, The Stanley Parable and Fruit Ninja. Authors such as Isaac Asimov and Greg Egan influenced the story.
Happy Style is the first piece of the new universe, World of Unique Views,
which over time will include many games, books and projects in other formats. I
plan to expand this universe for decades.
A key feature of World of Unique Views is the originality of its pieces: each
project should bring something fresh to its genre or even create new ones. No
direct sequels.
Important: there are no Pay 2 Win mechanics in the free version, there are no
paid accelerators. Only cosmetic content.
The version for the PlayStation Vita will not be an ordinary port, I have an
incredible idea for it. Sony's portable device helped me a lot in the last year
of the development of Happy Style, and therefore I want to do something special
for this system, expanding the world of the game.
More details about versions for other systems will be in the near future :).
Thank you for attention! Have a great day!
Be Happy!
